 The mesh display will allow the user to view all other related branches of
 the current activity on the mesh, whether they share a common origin or
 are branches of one another.  This means that if one child presses View
 Source and edits an activity their friend made, that friend can see those
 changes (and possibly be alerted about them) and merge those changes back
 into their own code.

 There is a mockup of the "community viewer" on
 http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Develop , but it is rather old and has several
 issues, and will not be particularly indicative of the finished product.

 I don't *think* that this could be integrated with Sugar's mesh viewer,
 because Develop has two different modes of collaboration: live
 collaboration (like the other activities), and long-term collaboration,
 which is basically the exchange of patches over distributed version
 control.

 Perhaps this could be implemented in the as yet nonexistent Sugar activity
 manager?
